    3. There is a list somewhere, but I've lost it. However, you can try the USGS Geographic Names Information System. http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnispublic/. You can't specify a particular town, but it can be limited to state and county. There are 74 cemeteries, probably doesn't include very small family plots, in Berkshire County. There is no need to even put a "feature name" in. It should be noted that "map" is not a great help. This means the feature appears on a 7.5 minute map that is named for some major feature on that map. Nevertheless, I've found the search tool to be very handy. It is quite powerful and requires some practice to really get used to it. It even links to some of the mapping software, like GoogleEarth.
